Rep-Cal SRP00806 Tortoise Food, 12.5-Ounce

This is the only food my 29 year old tortoise likes! Apparently it tastes good but I wouldn't know!

Good stuff!

it is reasonably priced and Speedy loved it

Although my Russian enjoys eating her regular mixture of fresh vegetables/greens, at times I throw this into her food mix if I run out of fresh vegetables blend of greens or provide this as an alternative for her to eat in hopes she might gain added positive nutritional value from the different variety offered than what I normally give her regularly to eat. I know she prefers her fresh green mixture over this processed turtle food, yet, she will eat it. I like that it offers a different fruit and vegetable variety than what I normally feed her, that it is fast and convenient, assures I never run out of food for her, along with it having some added nutrients, vitamins, etc. within the mix that she would normally not get. These are small, multi-colored, pea sized, variation of fruits and vegetables. These are hard, so I will first soak them within water to soften, then give the softened food to my turtle for her to consume. I start with about One-Eighth cup that I will only fill half full (I do not fill up the full 1/8 cup portion with food; next, I will fill the Eight cup container with food with water that will only cover to the top of the food peas - not to the top of the container. The food peas will expand to a larger portion size after absorbing the added water. Then, I will place the moistened food into her turtle food bowl and feed. Honestly, it is not her top, #1 favorite meal choice. Yet, many times having this food as a back up or an alternative sure has proven more than once to be "the food item that assured she got fed regularly." (Rather than wait until I recovered from an unexpected illness or got to the food store to buy her usual meal choice preference of fresh vegetables). I have purchased this particular brand and flavor ever since I purchased my Russian Turtle and will continue to incorporate this into her meals. The container appears to be fresh, vacuumed packed sealed, the container is plastic with a reusable twist lid top.

I've ordered this before and it was great however, this container was previously opened, no seal, smelled odd and was brown. My tortious won't even eat it. Not pleased.

Our tortoise Winnebago is almost 82 years old, and for years we have fed him this amazing product along with healthy greens, and he is in great shape. I dampen some of this while chopping broccoli florets into bite-size bits, then sprinkle this on top, which of course has been soaking for a couple of minutes in water. This gives him tasty nutrition and hydration, and he loves this (with rose petals added for dessert if possible). And it is SO reasonable in price, I don't know how they do it.

First of all this stuff smells like cereal, which make me happy.I only feed this when I run out of my tortoises regular food, and he eats it happily. He does not like the purple ones, which I think is cute...he eats all the other colors and at the end of the day the purples are left over.I soak these in a little water to make them easier to eat, he won't touch them if I just put them in dry.

I personally cannot testify to the flavor but our Tortoise 🐢 loves these fruity looking pebbles. They add the nutritional supplements she needs to grow big and strong without having to crack open a can of spinach like ”Popeye” should she need to protect herself from a predator as she matures. Of course, I'm interpreting for our tortoise- as she cannot speak English- but take my word for it! Great product- and after 6 months of ordering through Amazon with this company, they have always delivered on time.
